Is there something wrong with the tool Transparent? After using 40% transparent, does it not work to

[haneadino]

I have been working on some layout and made these 2 objects (see picture) approx. 40% transparent of red while I worked. But now when I do these 2 objects up to 100% again,  - then it does not work? now the color remains light red, instead of 100% red. Why? Does the tool Transparent don't work??

Are you selecting both objects at the same time? If so, select just one of them and change the transparency.

You could also check the Appearance panel and change the transparency setting in there.

Hi @barbara_a  Thank you!

That didn't help.

Here is a video: https://www.loom.com/share/f8979cfcfa43480db57239b868018c7e

Have you tried changing the transparency by accessing the Transparency panel by clicking it in the Appearance panel? Perhaps you already tried this, but I didn't see it in the video.

Yes I have! I don't work

Can I send you the file? AI?

You can upload the file to someplace like dropbox or google drive and post a link here in the Adobe Support Community. Or if you send me a private message.
